Hello all !
Yesterday i had some problem and had to seek some medical aid from ENT, splst. Iwas driving and all of sudden it made me to sneeze like hell and i bleeded through nose. A physician made some carterization and gave some medicines but today i consulted an ENT who,diagnosed it chronic rhinitis and prescribed some antibiotics for 3days, antiallergic injection of siingle heavier dose and antiallrgc tabs for 10 days and chemyrol forte for 3 days.However,none of these drugs are abusive in nature. I hope this development has not hampered my programme of detoxification. kindly remove my doubts in this regard !!!!

It's a new day, whew! I don't think there's a giant rush to get into aftercare, but you could start looking, planning where,  when and how. You want to get some mental tools in  place before the "blowback" from detoxing get's a person thinking about "just one"! The symptom's still nagging you are perfectly common, aggravatin sure. This is what it's like getting free, and part of my inspiration for not going back. I fear a daily dosage to control pain more than pain itself. I'm not fond of either. Life and health are a learning experience, forever young, right? You have went through so much already, I so hope you learn from it. Try some aftercare of your choice, have a plan in place before the devil comes knockin for how you will deal with temptation, it's out there and it want's you back. Good luck

Thankyou very much for your support. I can go definitely to other town where i can seek aftercare. In fact, my question is shall i go immediately or i can delay till i feel little better from this restlessness and the body aches,particularly,my legs. Moreover,i dont dislike herbal things,the only problem with them is dosage and interactions and that makes me little apprehensive. At present i have only two problems,one is bodyache and the other is restlessness because of sleepless nights. Sneezing i dont care now because after stopping drugs the natural systems are becoming functional again as you very well pointed out in your prev post.
Thankyou very much.

To gh 76, medico's is almost free of detoxing, I believe either of those would be severely backtracking at this time, don't you? I wish you well also, and what your doing seems like a good start, and good luck!

Medico's, I'm not aware of anything you need medical help with unless I missed something? If your referring to suggestions of aftercare, I'm thinking of mental and moral support, not medicinal. If anything I would hope you would look at naturopathic, or nutritional expertise, long before anything else that might be "habit forming", even if that hasn't been determined. I believe in the beginning Oxy was touted as not being addictive. I beg to differ with that assessment!!! Same with tramadol, these pages are rife with examples of differing opinions on that as well. But like you said above, you can't just take any of this stuff randomly, know what your putting in yourself.
I'm not laughing at your family structure at all, mine maybe. I would be very suprised if in that group, that you were the lone addict. Being healthy is a life style and a choice. It really doesn't seem possible to do both. Can you go to the next town over and seek the addiction aftercare of your choice? If you don't like it don't return there, but find what works for you.

Just want to share my experience.Have had a very hard time with cravings and giving in after competing detox.Read about Wellbutrin on this sight and got some from my doctor.It has 90% removed my cravings and knock on wood it continues to work this way.I also took Dexedrine which I know is not recomended for those with past substance abuse issues but it really helped me get through the withdrawals without going back.
